Are staff members qualified? All staff members are experienced and qualified in their field (teaching or professional coaching). We ensure that all staff are recruited through a rigorous recruitment programme, and all staff members have to provide references and police checks. Do students get free time? Students are allowed free time on campus after meal times. Depending on the age of the students, there is limited free time when on excursions so that students can safely explore the city in groups. How do you arrange the accommodation? We spend a lot of time considering which students should be accommodated in which rooms. However, as a general rule, we encourage students to share with other nationalities so they can make new friends and practise English.
